I became the son of Renzong

Chapter 926 Ambition
Xiao Lugu was sent to Bianliang, and even met his wife and children... But, he needed to report what he had seen and analyzed to the guard team of the Imperial City Division again.

Wang Zhongzheng interrogated in person, including Xiao Lugu's family members, and Wang Zhongzheng accompanied them.

Officials have said that people are frank and all emotions are true.Wang Zhongzheng felt that Xiao Lugu's joy when he saw his family was true, and what Xiao Lugu said was exactly the same as the report presented by Yunzhou Mansion.

"Officials, from emotions to statements, the little ones follow in person, and the report is completely consistent with the report of the head of the Yunzhou government and the Yunzhou garrison."

As for whether it is credible or not, Wang Zhongzheng still dare not make a conclusion, at least he dare not draw conclusions in front of the officials... This is related to the dispatch of troops by the imperial court, even related to the war with the Northern Liao Dynasty A matter of victory or defeat.

"Let people go home and reunite! If Lu Gu can deceive people to this extent, he won't be unknown in Beiliao. He's still a member of Yelv Yixin..."

Judging from all aspects, the Northern Liao Dynasty is preparing for a battle in Hebei Province and Guochao that can determine the direction of the entire war, and even determine the relationship between Song and Liao in the future.

The overall thinking of the Northern Liao Dynasty did not have the concept that the Song Dynasty was going to destroy the Northern Liao Dynasty.Good······

"Officials, send surprise troops directly from Yunzhou, Hedong? The troops are divided into two groups, traveling eastward from Weizhou and Fengshengzhou, sweeping the Nanjing Road in the Northern Liao Dynasty, and the army is interspersed behind the defense line of the Northern Liao Dynasty, forming a two-sided attack. One battle will determine the outcome of the battle! "

It was originally judged that Hedong Road should be the key point for Beiliao to break through and enter the territory of Guochao to fight, but now, it seems to have become the breakthrough point of Guochao.

The cabinet can almost see this fighter.For so many years, in so many wars, the strategic guidance of the officials has all focused on the situation of the great encirclement and suppression.

There is nothing wrong with Zhang Dun's proposal, and the cabinets also agreed.

"Wait, let's disperse the troops drawn from the states to reinforce the Hedong Road, and wait for the right time to attack..."

"Official..."

suitable time?Shouldn't double-teaming be launched when the two sides confront each other and concentrate most of their troops in one place?The current Hebei Road, the two sides are separated by a hundred miles, and all the troops are concentrated on the Hebei Road...
At this time, it should be the best time to send troops from Hedong Road, right?Wang Anshi is not sure.Officials have always had unique insights, but they are correct every time.

Therefore, he did not refute, but asked first, and the other cabinets also had the same expression.

"The so-called double-teaming should be the most affected by the weather, location, and people among all tactics. The weather can be said to be the timing of the battle, let's not talk about it for now. Let's talk about the location and the harmony. The so-called location, I think it is the terrain. question."

"Whether the terrain is familiar, what kind of military service the terrain is suitable for, etc., and harmony is the individual combat quality of the soldiers, the morale of the soldiers, and the size of the team, etc."

"The siege of Xixia was determined by the terrain of Xiping Mansion itself. Deserts and rivers formed a natural resistance line. But what is the terrain of the Hebei Road?"

"My understanding of war is to kill effectively, to eliminate the living forces as much as possible, and to lose combat power, that is, to kill the Northern Liao cavalry as much as possible in the war!"

"Beiliao is dominated by cavalry, and the terrain of the Hebei Road is conducive to cavalry fighting and fleeing. Once the country shows the advantage of outflanking the Beiliao army at the beginning of the war, it will definitely shake the Beiliao army's morale."

"Speaking of which, a wavering of the army's morale is beneficial to the war, especially the team raised by many tribes like the Beiliao. When the army's morale is shaken, it is easy to win."

"Similarly, the premature wavering of the army's morale can easily lead to the withdrawal of all forces in the Northern Liao Dynasty from the battlefield early, and then take advantage of the advantages of the cavalry to flee on the huge plain. At that time, whether it is chasing or turning into civilians, Neither can achieve the strategic goal of limited annihilation!"

"Although the current Northern Liao army is imposing on the surface, and the scale is quite large. In essence, the two consecutive years of war have made the soldiers somewhat war-weary, and the money and food of the Northern Liao court to support this war are also stretched. We should make full use of this point!"

"In this battle, Guochao almost devoted all of the country's efforts. I am not satisfied with just recovering the remaining twelve prefectures in Yanyun. Since I have been planning for many years, I just want to use this battle to make Beiliao a history. And the territory of the Song Dynasty, at least expanded to the Yanshan Yinshan area, and even affected the grassland..."

the first time?Maybe not, but this is the first time that officials have shown their ambition so clearly, and it is still so big.

Nothing, as far as the current strength of the country is concerned, with the foundation for the officials to show their ambitions, Song Dynasty also needs such ambitions.

"I hate entangled wars and stable national defense. The court is committed to the internal governance of the country, so that the lives of the people in the world are changing with each passing day, and they have a sense of gain in a happy life. This is what the court should do."

"So, I don't want to see that after the recovery of the Sixteen States of Yanyun, the Khitan's old and young continue to harass the frontier. I hope to use this battle to completely annihilate the Khitan's vital forces, and the future Khitan people, including All the tribal forces in the Northern Liao Dynasty have become obedient citizens of the Song Dynasty, rather than a rebellious force that always draws the energy of the court!"

"Before the war begins, it's not good to show the full strength of the country! When the war is in full swing, Beiliao is exhausted, and the horses are close to being destroyed. At that time, Hedong Road will send troops to encircle and suppress from behind, and it will be possible to reach Zhen I want to annihilate the results of the war in one fell swoop!"

There are many factors that affect war.The great man once said: The outcome of a war is determined by the military, political, economic, geographical, nature of war, international aid and other conditions of both sides, but not only these; only these, but only the possibility of victory or defeat , which by itself is inconclusive.In order to decide the outcome, subjective efforts must be added, and this is directing and conducting the war, and this is conscious initiative in war.

Zhao Xi is very convinced of this sentence, but now, Zhao Xi is just taking the so-called consciousness and initiative of war into consideration by empathizing with the Northern Liao court, all forces, and even the consciousness of all soldiers in the Northern Liao Dynasty. sex and agency.

After all, wars are still done by people. People, or soldiers, are the most critical factor in determining wars.And people have thoughts and emotions. When guiding war strategies, we must not ignore people, that is, the emotional and ideological factors of soldiers.

Da Song returned without success twice, which made the soldiers suffocate, like a pressed spring.And Fanqi was even more enthusiastic because he sought the approval of the Song court.

Comparing the two sides, Zhao Xi believes that this battle is very hopeful to achieve the victory he wants.
